Web Development & Hosting
SoftSol designs, builds, and hosts websites and web applications on its own infrastructure. From a professional marketing site to a purpose-built web application, we handle the full lifecycle — domain, design, development, database, and ongoing hosting.
What's included
Domain Registration & Management
SoftSol can register and manage your domain, configure DNS, and ensure renewals are never missed. Existing domains transferred in where preferred.
Website Design & Development
Clean, professional websites built to your requirements. Responsive design, fast load times, and content that reflects your brand and audience.
Web Application Development
Custom web applications built for internal tools, client portals, and business process automation. Designed for the way your business actually works.
Database Platforms
PostgreSQL and other database platforms deployed, tuned, and maintained as part of your web application stack. Backups and monitoring included.
Ongoing Hosting & Maintenance
Your site or application hosted on SoftSol infrastructure, monitored continuously. Updates, patches, and content changes handled as part of your plan.
SSL Certificates
HTTPS configured on all hosted sites as standard. Certificate issuance and renewal managed automatically — no expiry surprises.
The Hosting Platform
Gaius — Hospitium et Honor
Gaius is SoftSol’s own managed, multi-tenant web hosting platform. Your site is welcome here — whether we built it or you bring it to us.
In Roman culture, the hospes — the gracious host — bore a sacred duty: to receive guests with dignity, to shelter them with security, and to ensure their every need was met. Gaius carries that legacy. It is not merely a server — it is The Host. Each client who joins becomes a welcomed tenant in a curated, secure, high-performance environment.
Hospitium
Every client receives a properly provisioned home — their own domain, their own identity, their own isolated space within the platform.
Securitas
SSL-encrypted by default, hardened by design. HTTPS is enforced on every site — security is not bolted on afterwards, it is woven into every layer.
Celeritas
A high-performance web server, optimised configuration, and lean delivery. Speed is hospitality — no guest should be kept waiting at the door.
- •Each tenant on their own subdomain or custom domain with full SSL isolation
- •Independent virtual host configuration per site — scalable from a static page to a full web application
- •Server patches, certificate renewals, and configuration updates handled continuously
- •Automatic HTTP → HTTPS enforcement across all hosted sites
Technology
- •Modern web frameworks — projects are built with appropriate, well-supported frameworks. No proprietary CMS lock-in unless it suits your needs.
- •PostgreSQL and other database platforms — relational databases designed for reliability, performance, and straightforward backup and recovery.
- •Secure hosting on SoftSol infrastructure — your application runs on the same enterprise-grade VPS platform used for client systems, not shared commodity hosting.
Project delivery
- •Requirements — scope, audience, and technical requirements agreed up front. No surprises mid-project.
- •Design — layout, style, and structure reviewed and approved before development begins.
- •Build — development with regular progress updates and a staging environment for review.
- •Test — cross-browser, cross-device, and functional testing before go-live.
- •Launch — DNS cutover and go-live managed by SoftSol with minimal downtime.
- •Maintain — ongoing hosting, updates, and support as your site or application evolves.
